本研究引入了环境集体行动（ECA）的概念，并与之前研究人员描述的集体行动进行了比较。一个特定类型的ECA进行了更详细的调查，使用的数据从269块领导人的调查，块领导路边回收，块社会经济地位，和块社交网络的有效性之间的关系进行了检查。更高水平的街区参与回收计划被认为与更高的社会经济地位，更高的“社会关系密度”（衡量街区居民相互了解的程度）和更高的“社会关系集中化”（衡量街区领导者了解街区居民的程度）有关。领带密度的影响被认为是更明显的高收入和教育水平的街区，但不太明显的高水平的居民拥有住房的街区。领带中心化的影响在社会经济地位较低的街区更为明显。这些结果的解释进行了讨论。
This research introduces the notion of environmental collective actions (ECAs) and makes comparisons with collective actions as described by previous researchers. A particular type of ECA is investigated in greater detail; using data from a survey of 269 block leaders, relationships among the effectiveness of block leader curbside recycling, block socioeconomic status, and block social networks are examined. Higher levels of block participation in the recycling program are seen to be associated with higher socioeconomic status, higher "social tie density" (a measure of how well block residents know each other), and higher "social tie centralization" (a measure of how well the block leader knows block residents). The effect of tie density is seen to be more pronounced for high income and education level blocks, but less pronounced for blocks with high levels of resident home ownership. The effect of tie centralization appears more pronounced for low socioeconomic status blocks. Explanations for these results are discussed.
